• Provide technical leadership and architectural guidance to engineering teams working across the e-commerce ecosystem.
• Participate in the full Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC), including requirements gathering, solution design, development, testing, defect resolution, deployment, and documentation.
• Support, maintain, and continuously improve the e-commerce ecosystem to ensure optimal functionality, performance, security, and scalability.
• Design and manage integrations with external systems and enterprise applications using web services, Application Programming Interfaces (APIs), middleware platforms, and event-driven architectures.
• Drive integrations across the ecosystem, including Storefront-to-commerce backend, Commerce platform-to-CMS, PIM, and DAM, Commerce platform-to-ERP and order management systems, Payment and tax services, Warehouse and logistics systems, and Third-party API integrations.
• Collaborate with business stakeholders, product owners, architects, and engineering teams to identify and implement system improvements and new capabilities.
• Ensure compliance with security, architecture, coding, and development standards.
• Lead technical design discussions, architecture reviews, and solution walkthroughs.
• Drive code reviews and enforce engineering best practices.
• Support production releases, hotfixes, and deployment governance processes.
• Provide technical support for multi-market rollouts, localization, and regional customizations.

• 15+ years of experience in enterprise digital commerce solutions, preferably in Business-to-Business (B2B) environments supporting complex customer journeys across web and mobile channels.
• Demonstrate strong experience leading cross-functional engineering teams of 15–20+ members across multiple capability areas, ensuring high-quality delivery, continuous improvements, platform scalability, and engineering excellence.
• Drive technical ownership of Continuous Improvement (CI) roadmaps, including enhancements, feature development, market rollouts, platform modernization, and optimization initiatives across digital commerce platforms.
• Manage day-to-day engineering execution using Jira and Agile tools, including sprint planning, backlog prioritization, release planning, and delivery metrics tracking.
• Deliver multi-market, multi-currency, and multi-language commerce implementations, including localization strategies and global rollout models.
• Apply strong expertise in headless and composable commerce architecture, designing decoupled systems across storefronts, backend platforms, content systems, and enterprise applications.
• Work across end-to-end digital commerce ecosystems, including frontend applications, backend platforms, CMS, PIM, DAM, middleware, APIs, ERP, order management systems, and downstream enterprise services such as payment, tax, warehouse, and logistics systems.
• Design scalable and resilient systems using microservices architecture, APIs, event-driven patterns, middleware integrations, and distributed systems.
• Apply strong knowledge of cloud-native architecture using platforms such as Microsoft Azure, including API gateways, serverless computing, integrations, and monitoring frameworks.
• Use version control systems such as GitHub and implement Continuous Integration and Continuous Delivery (CI/CD) pipelines, deployment governance, release management, and production readiness practices.
• Apply object-oriented programming principles and modular design using backend technologies such as Java, .NET, Node.js, or similar platforms.
• Develop modern frontend applications using HyperText Markup Language (HTML), Cascading Style Sheets (CSS), JavaScript or TypeScript, and frameworks such as React or Next.js, with a strong understanding of responsive design and headless storefront patterns.
• Work with Structured Query Language (SQL) and NoSQL databases, including MongoDB, DynamoDB, Cassandra, Azure SQL, and similar enterprise data platforms.
• Implement engineering quality practices, including Continuous Integration, unit testing, static code analysis, automated integration testing, performance testing, and Continuous Delivery.
• Apply Agile methodologies such as Scrum and Kanban to lead engineering teams in fast-paced delivery environments.
• Conduct solution design reviews, architecture reviews, code reviews, and cross-system impact analysis to ensure scalable and maintainable solutions.
• Balance delivery commitments, technical debt, and platform stability in fast-paced, results-driven environments.
• Communicate effectively with stakeholders, including business teams, product owners, architects, engineering teams, and external vendors.
